Abstract
Aim: To explore the LTBP4's expression, prognostic significance and molecular mechanism of action in breast cancer (BC).Methods: On the basis of omics datasets and experiments, we conducted a synthetical analysis of LTBP4 in BC.Results & conclusion: LTBP4 was downregulated in BC with high promoter methylation and low genetic alteration. DNA methylation was negatively associated with LTBP4 mRNA expression. Higher LTBP4 associated with better survival. LTBP4 was enrichment in extracellular matrix receptor interactions, cell adhesion molecules, cell cycle and MAPK pathway. LTBP4 expression and methylation were positively and negatively associated with tumor infiltrating immune cells, respectively. In conclusion, LTBP4 is a putative tumor suppressor in BC, which expression is regulated by DNA methylation and relates with prognosis.
期刊介绍：
Epigenomics provides the forum to address the rapidly progressing research developments in this ever-expanding field; to report on the major challenges ahead and critical advances that are propelling the science forward. The journal delivers this information in concise, at-a-glance article formats – invaluable to a time constrained community.
Substantial developments in our current knowledge and understanding of genomics and epigenetics are constantly being made, yet this field is still in its infancy. Epigenomics provides a critical overview of the latest and most significant advances as they unfold and explores their potential application in the clinical setting.
